Hello, especially to the newcomers. I’m Ken Kaneki and I’ve been in this world for three and half years now. Don’t worry, most of you will be leaving before the one year mark. [ better to add that before everyone starts to freak out ] I’ve written a F.A.Q., if you want to know a little more about your situation, and I've also written down notes regarding what happened through the years I have been here. I'm attaching the links if you want to have a look. Jacob-san, from RISE, has also compiled a Threat Roster which works as a resource to know who our current enemies are. [ because YES, they have enemies ] If you have any questions, I can try answering.

[ Kaneki leaves links to the F.A.Q., to the Notes and to RISE's Threat Roster. ]


On a much more positive note, :Re Café is still on going and we have new faces working with us, Veronica and Justine are our new employees, please treat them all. We will be adding Veronica's slushies to the menu since her power is useful like that. [ and since newcomers are here and Kaneki no longer hides it ] Our coffee shop provides mostly japanese food and snacks, we are also a book café, and we provide food for non-humans. [ take that as you will ]


Finally and unrelated to the above. Mako-san and Daryl were ported out. I was waiting for them to come back but... [ he sighs a little. Kaneki doesn't deal well with loss ] Nevermind. I just wanted to let you know about that.

I'm gonna stay here for four years just to spite that estimate.

[sO THERE]

[ghoulking]

Hey- I'm not claiming I'm the person who has been here the longest. Some people have been here longer.

Re: video

[h2no]

Yeah, I know Stark.

[he quite likes tony, though his standards are low.]

Congrats on the new employees. Let's hope D33 doesn't decide he hates them, eh?

[journalkeeper]

You are aware you're by far one of the most helpful people here, Ken?

[ You can hear the smile in her voice. She very much appreciates the FAQ. ]

Congratulations on your new employees, even if I'm sorry to hear that your friends are gone. I understand how difficult it must me.

voice;

[ghoulking]

Ah- I just am continuing something that helped me a lot before. I hope it'll help others too. [ he doesn't know if it will, he just hopes ]

Thank you, Lucretia. Sadly, it happens very often. [ even after three years he still can't handle it ] You are more than welcome to visit the shop whenever you'd like. I'll make you some late art.

SORRY THIS IS SO LATE

[journalkeeper]

I'm only sorry that so many have gone through so much for some of that information.

[ Like last month, but she doesn't say that. ]

I'll be sure to drop by some time. Even if our connections are fleeting, that's no reason not to develop them. A short friendship is better than no friendship at all.

I was wondering why Daryl has been so quiet for a while. [ Outch, though, thinking him back there. ]

[ghoulking]

Hm- He was always a quiet person, though.

As long you didn't anger him.

[aberranthubris]

I will miss him. And maybe one day we'll see him again.

[She flicks on the camera, something wild just barely held back behind her eyes.]

--Daryl?

video.

[ghoulking]

Yes. From Rick's- your world.

We lived together.

[littlemissfutility]

He was here?

When did he leave?

voice;

[fingerchewing]

Do you always make your staff changes into announcements?

voice;

[ghoulking]

Only sometimes. Since half of the staff has been replaced, I thought it was a good announcement to make.

[fingerchewing]

Some of my friends don't know.

It's not a problem, really. You could have warned me, though.

voice;

[aberrant_type]

Ah, now this is very helpful, and well-timed besides. Thank you.

voice;

[ghoulking]

[ oh, she is back. Not that Kaneki knew her well before, but he knows Hange has been here before, thanks to Annie. ]

You are welcome. I hope it cont9inues to help - if you have any question, I can try answering.

sorry this took so long! i wanted to review some of those links before replying

[aberrant_type]

[She takes her time reviewing all of this information, and believes some of it more because it comes from another Import rather than from the government. A well-organized, civic-minded Import, from the looks of it.]

I'm sure I'll have many questions. First off is a somewhat personal one! Are you registered?

Voice

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Appreciate the shout-out Kaneki. And that you're still keeping people updated. Your notes have been really useful helping inform new imPorts of what's what.

Voice

[ghoulking]

You have been great help through the years as well, so has RISE. [ well. except when they were letting known criminals into their ranks BUT THAT WAS LONG AGO kaneki is no longer salty about it ]

I'll keep things updated as I can, but I hope you won't have to update the threat roster. [ if he does, it means some new enemy showed up or a known one surfaced again ]

Voice

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Thanks. We all do our best.

[PRIVATE]

That reminds me. Any news on your end about the OTO? I've been using the Roster as a way to keep everyone up to date on what we know about them.

video. THIS IS BEFORE EVERYTHING GOES TO SHIT, SO STILL HAPPY

[functusofficio]

Ah, Kaneki. You're so reliably kind and resourceful. I appreciate you extending this service to those of us who are new.

[ghoulking]

You aren't so new anymore, Padmé.

I never did congratulate you over winning the elections. I was happy to hear you'd be the new Ambassador.

[video]

[codeofiron]

Thank you. [His tone is sincere, but he's squinting a bit, still looking at some of the information.]

There isn't anything else that can be done about the Porter?

[video]

[ghoulking]

Perhaps there is, but personally I don't wish to meddle with it again after what happened in December.
